An American tourist is on tour through England with a rented TRUCK. He goes to a fast food restaurant and eats a massive portion of FRENCH FRIES with lots of KETCHUP on it and drinks some coke. (He has a bottle of LIQUOR with him, but as he is a driver he doesn’t drink it, of course.) Later he has a PUNCTURE in one of the TYRES. He goes to a garage nearby.
